About
Chris Christodoulou is a composer based in Athens, Greece, writing music for video games, movies and other media, as well as stand-alone compositions. Originally from Sparta, Greece, took his first music lessons at a very young age. He moved to Athens to study music theory, sound design and music composition, the latter under composer Joseph Papadatos.
"My compositions are, more often than not, structured like a film: Act I, in which you meet the characters and get some exposition; Act II, where something goes wrong, Act III, the big action set-piece; Epilogue, where we get to reminisce over past events. I have written for small ensembles, orchestral, electronic, heavy metal and the common thing is that with each piece I try to tell a story.”
“Daft Punk’s Discovery is, to me, one of the most important electronic albums ever made and my personal #1 album of the 00s.”
“Pink Floyd is another huge (and obvious) influence in both albums… This may sound off but J.S. Bach (and baroque music in general) is also at the heart of both soundtracks, in terms of extensive use of contrapuntal melodies and particularly dense instrumentation.”Chris wrote music for games Risk of Rain, Risk of Rain 2, and Deadbolt.
